6 National Donut Day Deals from Shops Across the Country

Celebrated on the first Friday of every June (that’s tomorrow!), National Donut Day means specials, deals and donations at doughnut shops across the country. Here, six great Donut Day offerings to seek out tomorrow.

In 1938, a military doctor named Morgan Pett picked up eight dozen doughnuts on his way to a military base, where he gave a doughnut to every wounded soldier he helped. Pett’s random act of fluffy, fried kindness grew into a nationwide fundraiser for The Salvation Army, and National Donut Day was born. Now celebrated on the first Friday of every June (that’s tomorrow!), National Donut Day means specials, deals and donations at doughnut shops across the country. Here, six great Donut Day offerings to seek out tomorrow.
